This is a comprehensive taxonomic account of 300 taxa of lichen sbelonging to 83 genera and 26 families supported by 2 maps and 180 colour photographs. Identification keys at different hierarchy have been provided in order to facilitate their identification. The genera under each family and species under each genus is arranged alphabetically.
